Interior Design Fundamentals: Bundle Book + Studio Access Card

"The book’s greatest strength is approaching the subject through the lens of design thinking. There is a need to emphasize design thinking at early foundation levels in interior design." Lee Keen, Louisiana State University, USA

Learn the basics of interior design thinking and the design process. Envision yourself in the role of professional designer as you learn about design theory, such as the phases of design, spatial well-being, color theory, history, professional practices, and design practicalities such as finishes, furnishings, lighting, environmental systems, and more.
